Chapter 214Shakira thought carefully. “The fifteenth of next month, is it Little New Year on the 24th of the lunar year?”In Crescentville, they celebrate the Little New Year on the 24th, he thought. Levi chuckled and revealed the answer. “That day is Mr. Lopez’s birthday,”Shakira’s eyes slowly widened, clearly surprised by the answer.”In previous years, Mr. Walter Lopez’s birthday was not celebrated grandly; it was just Mr. Lopez, Mrs. Lopez, and Mr. Benji Lopez having a meal with Mr. Walter Lopez. But this year… As he recalled the past, Levi’s gaze drifted far away, revealing a hint of melancholy. Shakira lowered her brows and slightly pressed her lips together. After a moment, when she lifted her head again, she wore a bright and relaxed smile, saying, “Don’t worry, Levi. This year, Mr. Benji Lopez and I will be here with him.”Seeing the lively smile on her face, Levi expressed his gratitude earnestly. “Thank you, Ms. Nelson, thank you for being by Mr. Walter Lopez’s side.”He thought: “If she hadn’t recklessly barged into Mr. Walter Lopez’s world, he might still be trapped in the predicament he had fallen into today. Thankfully, Ms. Nelson’s arrival, like an irresistible ray of sunshine, had brought new life to the young master.Levi, you flatter me!” Shakira reassured him. After a moment, she asked, “What kind of birthday gifts has Walter received in the past?”Wiping the corners of her eyes, she began to recount fondly, The crocodile Otto was a birthday gift from Mr. Lopez to Mr Walter Lopez for his seventh birthday. The Maybach fleet was a coming-of-age gift from Mr. Lopez to Mr. Walter Lopez. As for the famous artwork in the study.Shakira’s lips twitched slightly. “Uh, I think I can come up with the birthday gift myself! Levi, I’m heading to work now.””Yes, as long as it’s from Ms. Nelson, Mr. Lopez will definitely like it. The sapphire brooch you gave to Mr. Lopez before is something he wears often.”A light blush appeared on Shakira’s face as she remembered he wore that very brooch to the investors’ dinner a few daysago.After saying goodbye to Levi, Shakira went directly to the hospital.As she passed by the herbal medicine pharmacy, she heard a harsh reprimand coming from inside, ‘At the rate you’re filling prescriptions, how long is this going to take? Do you expect the patients to go hungry waiting for you?” That sharp and harsh voice was very familiar to Shakira, ‘It was Fiona. What’s she up to this time? she wondered.As Shakira walked forward, she noticed several cameras aimed at the window of the herbal medicine pharmacy, capturing the scene inside.Inside the herbal medicine pharmacy, nearly ten staff members were using handheld scales to measure out herbs. They were all bowing their heads, clearly chastised by Fiona’s scolding, yet their hands continued to work, albeit slowly but steadily. Fiona stood with her hands on her hips, assertively reprimanding them with a domineering attitude, as if she wanted to poke her finger in their faces.”Why are you guys still dawdling? Can’t you find a few digital scales in a big place like Haruca Hospital? How much time are you going to waste using handheld scales to measure medicine one by one?” She cursed them angrily. “How stupid and 07:19 Thu, Nov 7Chapter 214-clueless can youbel”You’re the one who’s ignorant.” Shakira walked over to the window, her face stern.As soon as Shakira appeared, the staff inside brightened as if they had seen their savior. “Dr. Lonely Bird!”The camera turned towards them.The moment Fiona spotted her, her eyes seemed to blaze with fury.Shakira could sense the malice in her gaze. She couldn’t help but wonder why Fiona, who had no dealings with Dr. Lonely Bird, was looking at her with such hatred.’Could it be that she resented her for overshadowing her on the show? she wondered.Shakira wasn’t concerned about angering Fiona. Instead, she patiently explained to the increasingly impatient patients lining up outside the window to get their medicine.”Using manual handheld scales to measure herbal medicine isn’t meant to intentionally make things difficult for everyone. The components of the medicine are crucial; even a gram off can lead to a significant difference in efficacy. A slight over- or under-measurement can have a critical impact on the patient’s condition and overall health.”She calmly continued her explanation. “Compared to electronic scales, which may malfunction at any time during long-term use, handheld scales are the safest and most convenient tools for measuring herbs. The doctors are considering everyone’s health, so I kindly ask everyone to understand.”She said this hoping Fiona’s mistakes wouldn’t lead others to unfairly blame the pharmacy staff.Yesterday, she had been surrounded and felt the weight of everyone’s judgment; being misunderstood by so many was not a pleasant experience. Out of empathy, she didn’t want the hardworking medical staff to be misunderstood and to sacrifice convenience in their efforts.

We almost blamed the doctors unfairly!””You’re Dr. Lonely Bird, right? We saw you online yesterday and didn’t realize you were so impressive… Hearing your explanation today has really opened our eyes!””Exactly! When it comes to health and life, what’s a little wait? We should all understand each other!””Thank goodness Dr. Lonely Bird is here, or else my bad temper might have led me to swear. It would be so disheartening to upset the dedicated doctors who care for us!””Yes, yes! Thankfully, we have Dr. Lonely Bird..”The doctors inside the pharmacy glanced over at Shakira with grateful eyes. “If it hadn’t been for Dr. Lonely Bird’s timely appearance, they wouldn’t have known how long they would have to take the blame! they thought”Who is that female doctor stirring up trouble? Isn’t she also a doctor at Haruca Hospital? How can she criticize her own hospital’s doctors like that? Isn’t she just causing trouble for her own hospital?””Exacily, you can tell she probably got into Haruca Hospital through connections; it’s so unprofessional…”No one expected that one comment from Shakira would make Fiona the target of everyone’s anger.Just moments ago, Fiona had been brazenly speaking her mind, but now she found herself in an awkward position, her face flushing between shades of blue and red, looking extremely uncomfortable.273hu, NovChapter 214Although she was also adoctor, she had never dealt with traditional medicine, so she had no idea that these particular herbs shouldn’t be measured with electronic scales.She initially intended to watch the long line of people and apply a bit of pressure to leave a good impression in front of the show and the patients. “Little did she expect that someone like Shakira would show up and ruin her plans! she thought. Realizing that staying would only embarrass her further, she glared at Shakira, gritted her teeth, and left quickly.That bitch! She knew I was filming and deliberately came out to target me! Just because she has the status and aura of being Matthew’s disciple, she dares to trample all over my reputation in front of others, using this opportunity to show off! Shakira, Lonely Bird… just wait; I will make sure you end up disgraced! Fiona thought.Wasting no time, Shakira made it to the oflice right on scheduleAs soon as she opened the door, the little kittens, hearing the sound, stretched their necks by the window, meowing at her. They were being all cute, begging for milk.Shakira quickly took the warm goat milk from her pocket and patiently fed the kittens.She glanced at the cat food she left for them last night and was surprised to see it was all gone.Shakira was astonished. After feeding them milk, she opened the monitoring app on her phone and checked the footage. It turned out that stray cats had visited late last night and frightened the little kittens.However, the stray cats didn’t hurt the kittens; they just finished off the food she left.So you’ve been hungry all day, huh?”‘No wonder you were so eager for milk,’ she thought..Watching the two cute little kittens with their now-round tummies, Shakira felt a bit guilty.After thinking for a moment, she ordered some tools online and created a remote-controlled system that could dispense food through the surveillance cameras.Looking at the two fluffy little creatures, the thought of taking them home crossed her mind for a brief moment. However, she shook her head, dismissing the idea.She gently tapped the little ones on their heads, her tone cheerful yet distant. “I don’t have a home yet, so I can’t take you with me. Once I finish filming the show and your cat mom doesn’t come back, I’ll find you a more hidden spot so you won’t go hungry0
